C'est bien une adjudication judiciaire.

Car apparemment il y a du nouveau…
Qu’est ce que Pro ludo vient faire là dedans? C’est les racheteurs?..
Please…
Toutes les productions Eagles games seront dispo chez Pro Ludo, donc aucune inquiétude à avoir chez les allemands.
Pas d’info sur le niveau d’implication de Pro Ludo

Les enchères ont démarré à 17h heure française. Je suppose qu’elle doivent être close à présent. On devrait pas tarder à savoir qui est le nouveau propriétaire.
Qqn a du nouveau sur ce rachat / nouveau propriétaire ?
sur BGG on trouve ceci (message du boss de North star games, un partenaire d’Eagle games):
(ca ne sent pas bon du tout semble t’il…)
http://www.boardgamegeek.com/thread/118970/page/10
That Eagle games owed at least $1 million to various parties is not speculation. They owe money to us (North Star Games), to Uberplay, to Donahoe Digital (the texas hold-em computer game), to several manufacturers, to several banks, to personal investors, to most of every website and magazine that they put ads in, and etc.
Where Eagle goes in the future is speculation. Not even Glenn knows that right now. He is trying his hardest not to lose control of the company but his options became very limited once the house of cards started to fall on all sides of him.
It looks like The Age of Empire III will come out but I am not sure who will be the publisher. The game is pretty good. I played it with Rick Thornquist and Glenn in February at Toy Fair. Pirates is still a distant dream. At least it was in February. The only game right now that might turn into Pirates was developed by the same group that developed Bootleggers. The last I heard, it still needed work.
Keith will still be running the webstore. I thought it was to try and re-coup some of the money that he is owed but I am not sure of his goals now that I read his earlier posts.
Chuckerman, one of the manufacturers that Eagle owes money to, made the first bid on the Eagle assets. I have a feeling that his company will manufacture Age of Empire III but I don’t know what publishing label it will be under. Even after declaring bankruptcy, I don’t think there is any law that would keep Glenn from starting a new board game company with another name. He has already been thinking about new company names.
I wish I knew more. I think we’ll all just have to wait to see what Glenn decides to do. As for the money that is owed by Eagle, no reasonable person can see how everything will ever be repaid. Only in Glenn’s dream world is this ever a possibility.
A lot of us have been hurt by Eagle’s lack of transperancy. Glenn is a sales person. To him, the ends justifies the means. And everything would have been ok if what he expected/hoped actually happened. Unfortunately, things did not go as he expected/hoped and his untruthful way of dealing with people meant many people were not able to make their own decisions about the risks involved.
For instance, Wits & Wagers was not being shipped for over 1 month before North Star Games was informed about it by someone else. When I asked Glenn about it at Toy Fair, he adamently said that was not true and that games were being shipped. Five months later we learned for certain that games were still not getting shipped. Why? Because Eagle never paid the manufacturer for them (or the shipping/warehousing company for that matter). This was the final straw for us. We could not continue doing business if our games were not getting shipped. We finally had to send Eagle a termination notice outlining the many ways in which they had breached our contract.
Now North Star Games is teetering on bankruptcy. If Glenn had been honest with us (on this an 50 other accounts), we could have prepared better for this situation. Our survival is now 100% determined by whether we can raise money over the next few months. We have several interested parties, but our time horizon might be too short for the amount of money that we need to raise.
Anyhow, this is my version of what I’ve seen take place. I’m sure the official Glenn version will come out at some point in the future. I just hope it comes with many appologies for his lack of honesty (with himself and with others) to the people and other companies that he worked with. Glenn is still the same likable person that he always was. He will pick up the pieces and find a way to make things work again. But for now, things are really tough for him. His whole world came crashing down and there was nothing he could do to stop it. I imagine he will continue to hang low until he picks the pieces back up again.
Est-il vrai que Hasbro a racheté Eagle Games ?

J’ai lu ça ici:

Enfin c’est surtout le Hasbro entre parenthèses qui m’a intrigué et je me demandais si c’était une blague (comme le reste du sujet) ou si c’était vrai.
J’ai cherché un peu sur le net mais je n’ai pas trouvé grand chose.
On va pouvoir se faire rembourser 50% sur les jeux Eagle Games deux semaines par an ?

Apparemment, ce serait la boutique en ligne americaine Funagain qui aurait gagne les “assets” d’Eagle Games aux encheres (source BGN).
Les plus pessimistes craignent que ladite boutique ait achete la marque et le stock principalement pour le 2e (pour pouvoir tout revendre).
Les optimistes se disent qu’il y a d’autres “vieilles” boutiques ludiques qui se sont au bout d’un moment tournees vers l’edition (par exemple recemment la boutique allemande Playme qui s’est lancee avec Big Kini)
Bref, Wait’n see…
Exact. Ils l’annoncent sur leur site ici.
Funagain fêtent leur 10 ans d’existance cette année. Est-ce une année charnière pour qu’ils se lancent dans l’édition ? Eux seuls le savent…
En attendant il n’y aura plus de nouvelle impression des jeux Eagles Games, et le stock des jeux E.G sont en leur possession. Il s’agit des derniers, et il n’y en aura pas d’autres.

Oui, beaucoup de dettes apparemment (selon une interview, pas forcément objective d’ailleurs, sur Boardgame News)
C’est à cause du poker !!!
Le poker est une création du malin pour pervertir les âmes faibles.
Tremblez, vous, gens de peu de vertu !!!
Bon, sérieusement, apparemment ils (Eagle Games) ont tenté une diversification dans les produits Poker (Jeu PC et matériel de jeu) qui n’a pas bien fonctionné. Gros investissements + faibles revenus = lourdes pertes…
